Here's How Pete Buttigieg Can Win the 2020 Democratic Party Nomination -- According to Science

[Soph0571]

The scholarly research on choice suggests hardcore Democratic voters may end up “(kicking) the tires for so long that they’ll start complaining that their toes hurt,” and those who decide early will most likely back the best-known candidates.

That would make things harder for candidates polling in single digits to break out of the pack, no matter how much media coverage they get or what credentials they boast.

Behavioral science also suggests voters will mentally shrink the field by sorting them race, sex, ideology, and perceived chances of winning.

Candidates can also stand out visually by creating an identifiable brand, like Steve Jobs wearing the same style black turtleneck every day.

Mayor Pete Buttigieg has already tried to do that, by frequently appearing in a white dress shirt, without a coat and usually with a blue tie, which may help voters create a visual image as he’s trying to break out.

1. This reminds me of the trivializing idiot Maureen Dowd...

...who in 2000 thought that how Al Gore looked while wearing a suit was the most important issue in the Presidential election.
